Abstract

Vaisseau torique semi-submersible destiné principalement à l'exploitation du pétrole offshore. Le vaisseau dans sa forme préférentielle est composé d'un tore excentré dont le centre de gravité placé sous le centre de carène, le maintient en position verticale avec la partie renflée disposée à la base du navire. L'invention peut être utilisée comme stockage de pétrole brut ainsi que de plate-forme de forage et de production.Semi-submersible toric vessel intended mainly for offshore oil exploitation. The vessel in its preferred form is composed of an eccentric torus, the center of gravity of which, placed under the center of the hull, maintains it in a vertical position with the swollen part placed at the base of the vessel. The invention can be used as a storage for crude oil as well as a drilling and production platform.
